Re: OT: Board Games
Ive played many but my all time favorite is still
Magic Realm

Its so unfortunate that it feel just prior to the birth of computer games so that its wonderful efforts at creating a random game-board, and random placements of treasure and opponents went unnoticed. Also its a shame that its never been computerized (altho there are open source efforts along that line)
Also I loved Car Wars

which did eventually get computerized for the Commodore. Id love to see a remake.
By the way; in the discussions of board games, links to Board Game Geek can be helpful.
